A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 40

After checking around, it was astonishing to find that none of the people present had obtained the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor. The elders of the Four Great Sacred Lands wore extremely dark expressions.

Soon, the Holy Lords of the Four Great Sacred Lands arrived on the scene as well, but they looked somewhat pale, as if they had received too many rewards. Nevertheless, the people present dared not say anything.

Murong Huang and the others surveyed the crowd for a long while before letting out a sigh and speaking up. “Alright, let them go; the person who received the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor is not among them.”

“What? Holy Lord, we surrounded this area as soon as possible. How could he still have escaped?” An elder at the peak of the Supreme level had a look of shock on his face, as he believed that, being at the Supreme level, he would definitely sense if someone had left.

Li Taibai shook his head. “Perhaps it was some method left behind by the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor. After all, being the strongest figure in the Xuantian Realm back then, even we are extremely wary of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor’s methods, fearing that we might harm his disciple. It’s possible that he used other means to let his disciple escape.”

Hearing Li Taibai’s words, the members of the Four Great Sacred Lands present found it hard to believe, but there seemed to be no other explanation.

As for the inheritance of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor, if someone had truly received it, the four Holy Lords would definitely be able to sense the aura of the inheritance and find the individual. Now that they couldn’t find anyone, it only indicated that the person was really not here.

At this moment, Su Qiaoran glanced around and quickly noticed that Wu Yifan was absent. She soon speculated that perhaps her Great Grandson had obtained the inheritance. At the same time, she felt extremely relieved that her Great Grandson had slipped away first; otherwise, the Four Great Holy Lords might not spare him unless he joined their ranks. Otherwise, they would most likely strike him down without mercy.

The next moment, it seemed Su Qiaoran sensed something and looked towards a distance, where Murong Xue was staring at her with a dark expression, looking as if she was shocked that Su Qiaoran had actually survived.

Not long ago, Su Qiaoran had already learned that Murong Xue was scheming against her from behind, so she wasn’t very surprised. She quickly approached Murong Xue, raised an eyebrow, and spoke disdainfully. “You seem surprised that I’m alive?”

“Impossible!””We are from a Holy Land; how could I possibly be shocked that you survived? I’m just surprised that you have actually broken through to the Great Saint level. I assume you must have gained quite an opportunity within the secret realm, right?” Murong Xue inhaled deeply and forced a smile as she spoke.

However, Su Qiaoran could only describe it in two words: hypocritical.

“Stop pretending. I know that Chen Feng and the others were sent by you. Just wait. Once I become the Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flower Holy Land, I’ll make sure to ruin you!” Su Qiaoran leaned closer to Murong Xue’s ear and said disdainfully.

The people of the Wu Family are known for repaying grudges, which is naturally inherited in Su Qiaoran’s genes. While Wu Hao also holds grudges, it pales in comparison to Su Qiaoran.

Upon hearing that Su Qiaoran openly mentioned this matter, Murong Xue’s pupils slightly trembled. Initially, she thought Su Qiaoran had just been fortunate enough not to encounter Chen Feng and the others. However, judging from Su Qiaoran’s words, it seemed she had likely encountered them, and most likely, they had met with misfortune.

Murong Xue had just managed to break through to the peak of the Saint level and thought that even if she didn’t eliminate Su Qiaoran, she could still contend for the position of Holy Maiden. Yet she hadn’t anticipated that Su Qiaoran would have actually killed Chen Feng and the others and smoothly advanced to the Great Saint realm.

It’s important to note that the Great Saint realm is significant; among all the Holy Maidens of the Myriad Flower Holy Land, there are very few who have ever broken through to the Great Saint realm before their hundredth birthday. Now, Su Qiaoran had become one of them, and it seemed she would secure her position as Holy Maiden.

Thinking of this, Murong Xue couldn’t suppress her murderous intent, but she quickly remembered something and took a deep breath before saying, “If that’s the case, then let’s wait and see!”

After saying her harsh words, Murong Xue turned and left. She had to ensure that in the following nine years, Su Qiaoran wouldn’t be able to become the Holy Maiden of the Myriad Flower Holy Land; otherwise, once Su Qiaoran attained that position, she would definitely be unable to remain in the Myriad Flower Holy Land.

She knew she had offended many enemies outside, and it was precisely because they feared the power of the Myriad Flower Holy Land that they hadn’t acted rashly against her. Otherwise, Murong Xue would have died eight hundred times by now.

Watching Murong Xue leave, Su Qiaoran remained unmoved. To her, Murong Xue was merely an inconsequential person; had it not been for the schemes against her, she doubted she would have had any connection to Murong Xue in this lifetime.

“It’s infuriating, my wife! Do you want me to take her out?”

Seeing his wife being insulted like this, Wu Hao, the pure love warrior, almost couldn’t hold back and wanted to take care of Murong Xue directly.

But he was stopped by Su Qiaoran, who wore a cold smile.

“Hubby, this is my enemy; let me handle her. If you just take her out like that, wouldn’t that be too easy on her?”

Seeing his wife’s expression, Wu Hao silently mourned for Murong Xue for a second.

Provoking his wife, Murong Xue had definitely messed with a tough opponent.

After failing to find the heir of the Magnificent Quasi-Emperor, the people from the Four Great Sacred Lands, although furious, had no choice but to let everyone present leave.

As for Su Qiaoran, after returning to the Holy Land, she spent some intimate time with Wu Hao, filling the void of loneliness and emptiness she had felt for an entire year.

Once Wu Yifan was taken away by Wu Hao, he couldn’t wait to find the Three Saint Kings who had been relentlessly hunting him down, planning to take revenge!

At the same time, the three Quasi-Emperor experts who had pursued Wu Yifan earlier were searching for him as well; they never expected that he would suddenly appear before them, causing them to burst into uncontrollable laughter.

“Ha ha ha, what an effortless catch! Kid, are you coming with us willingly, or should we disable you and take you with us?”

One of the three black-robed cultivators stepped forward, completely unaware that Wu Yifan’s aura had already recovered to its peak, even surpassing it.

Hearing their words, Wu Yifan couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow. After a long moment, he spoke with an unparalleled sense of pride, saying, “I think there’s a third option: I disable you all, and then you take me to your lair. After I destroy your lair, I will eliminate you!”
